Welcome to the Planning St. John's page. This page provides a site where the public can find information and give feedback on planning applications all in one place. Planning applications include Municipal Plan and Development Regulation amendments such as rezonings and text amendments, but do not include development applications, discretionary use applications, or non-conforming use applications.
Occasionally, a person or company proposes a type of development that does not meet our policies or regulations and would have to be rejected, unless an amendment can be made. Amendments undergo careful consideration by City staff and Council. As part of the amendment process, we invite you to learn about each application and give your comments and concerns – they help inform Council's decisions on these matters.
Links to current applications (starting in June 2022) are provided below. We invite you to view the applications that are of interest to you. Click the link to be taken to each planning application project page to learn more, ask a question, or provide your feedback.
If you prefer to provide comments or ask questions using mail or email, please do so to the Office of the City Clerk and include your name and address, or e-mail cityclerk@stjohns.ca or write to P.O. Box 908, St. John’s, NL, A1C 5M2. Be sure to include the name of the application in your submission.
